Dr. Asiri's
research activities are on the vibration control of mechanical systems. He
and his advisor, Prof.
A. Baz, have innovated a new class of support struts called periodic struts as
an isolator of the mechanical vibrations. He presented the innovative use of
unique characteristics of periodic struts in many critical applications
where the control of the wave propagation and the force transmission both in
the spectral and spatial domains is essential to stopping/confining the
propagation of undesirable disturbances. He got in 2010 a patent from KACST
titled: Differential Agitator. Dr. Asiri currently teaches vibrations
and control courses for undergraduate and graduate students. In addition, he
published lately many papers on vibration analysis and modal analysis of
Functionally Graded Materials using FEM.
